Nighttime Feeling: A Poem

H. Kris Thomas
What is the feeling that overtakes me at this time?
The desire to sit and to think and to rest

I stare out to see the glow of light
Standing out
Shining brightly against the blanket of night sky
I am wrapped up
Warm
Sipping hot liquid
Quiet

I adore the nighttime
The cutout moon that
Waxes and wanes for
My pleasure
Furiously glowing
For my benefit

I press my forehead into the window
Relaxing my gaze
Peering through the haze that
My breath makes on the glass
My focus on the stars
And beyond

    I like "the cutout moon." Nicely done.
